Within the field 'artificial intelligence' are many disciplines, one of which is planning. Planning seeks to find a suitable sequence of actions to carry out a task specified as a set of initial states for the objects involved in the actions and a required goal state. To do this the system has to have enough knowledge about the 'world' in the form of a planning domain model The process of constructing a planning domain model requires knowledge engineering. The structuring of the knowledge is important and hand-coding a domain model is a tedious and error-prone process. Static knowledge in the domain requires little update but the same cannot be said for the dynamic knowledge.
